I didn't think you could get so fat on bird seed :D

How very nice to see deer right in your yard. But I suppose it does make the bird seed disappear faster.

I don't mind the deer, it's the bear's in the spring, they destroy the feeders.

I have deer come feed in my orchard in the late fall and early winter. What they don't eat the birds and squirrels do.

Amen to that.

This deer thinks it's a squirrel, stealing from our squirrel feeder.

It doesn't take animals long to know when there's easy pickings around! :lol:

We have deer in the back and front yards almost daily. They can't get into the squirrel proof feeder. The squirrels can't either. They do eat all the flowers and hosta. I wish I could cull them, but not in my neighborhood. I do see a few nice Bucks each year.

We see them every day, too, Dave. Makes for fenced gardens if you expect to grow anything.

Looks to me like there might be some potential tenderloin and eggs for breakfast there or maybe some jerky.

Naw, those are like our pets. They even come up to the fence and tease the dogs.
